Get Physique-a-licious

Archive for June 26th, 2008

About a month ago when I decided to get back on track with my Power 90X I realized that I did not have my Shoulders and Arms DVD.  Oh what a pity.  I guess I will have to look for it and then start the next week.  :)  I searched and searched, the house was torn upside down, I guess I should really have cleaned the house instead of trashing it looking for this DVD. 

Well, I finally after about 3 weeks broke down and e-mail Beach Body to see if I could get a replacement.  I was in luck I could.  They normally don’t do that, but since I had already had the program and of course could not remember when I purchased it they said I could replace it for a fee, of course.  Okay, the cost was not a problem.  Just did not feel right knowing that I did not have all the DVD’s there when I actually started the program.  I get on the phone and what do you know, I was in luck, since I am a Million Dollar Body Coach I could get the DVD at the coach’s price.  Yes. 

So, I started the program hoping the DVD would come in in time when I actually had to do it.  Well, I rearranged the program slightly so I could do the Shoulders and Arms when it came it.  I have been so extremely busy this week.  It never fails. 

Last night, I thought I would give one more search to find the DVD.  I know I put it somewhere safe and so it would not get scratched.  I hate that.  Yes, I found it in one of my Yoga CD case.  Can you believe it.  I knew that would happen. 

Guess what came in the mail today?  You got it!  My Shoulders and Arms DVD.  Now I have two of those and TWO of Power and Grace Body Bar DVD.  I did the same thing to that one too.  Well, I got down to the fitness Conference in Dallas.  Dallasmania where Fitness Professionals go to learn.  I could not remember if I bought that one or not.  I was sure I did, but I again had misplaced it .  I get home and wal-la!  I find it.

Have I worked out today on Shoulders and Arms?  NO!  Urgh, been busy doing other stuff, like measuring for blinds, installing blinds, turning in details, letting the weather man’s dog out to go tinkle, shopping for groceries and now I have to go teach Step with Salsa.  Then I have to go do my Turbo Kick Cardio at the studio and then teach class doing legs with this group.  By the way, the legs are a little sore in the hamstring.  I should be Okay for tomorrow.  Thanks for asking.  HA!

I love a great workout.  Sometimes instructors get caught in a rut.  I really try and mix it up for my two groups with my Body Chizel.  Well, I bought a new DVD from Cathe.  I have several of her Step Dvd’s and other Dvd’s like the Core Max and something else I can’t seem to remember.  Anyhow, she is right up there with Mindy Mylrea.  Both of them have just gone off the deep end I tell you.  Anyhow, I purchased this awesome DVD that targets the upper body and the lower body in two different segments.  I wanted to really get these ladies shakin up.  Try out some different exercises.  Well, we really started kind of light in my opinion but I did give them that option so that I hoped they would be sore but not too sore and they could gage on where they are at.  That did the trick. 

You know, why is it that when you as an instructor really want to change things up, that all of a sudden you have a wave of new people trying out the class.  Well, I surely did not have a wave of new people, more like one person decided to come on leg day.  What?  Well, hang in there honey, we are doing this routine anyhow. 

I have told you a little bit about me starting up my Power 90X system again. Well, I will get to that later on this week after I finish week one.  Anyhow, I have been trying to fit this in with all the classes I teach.  I have to tell you though, my legs are going to not work for me in the morning. I have this feelin in them, usually I get this feeling after a great leg workout.  You know I have not had one of these in a while.  Well, I take that back, I remember now, when we were on the Corpus Christi family vacation, I seemed to have a problem with them then.  Well then, I have a feeling it is going to be worse, because I did not have this feeling back then and they hurt like crazy when I was trying to walk down the steps.

Back to the class.  I managed to let them know that I was doing a double duty and that what I am using do not gage on what they should be using because I will have to teach this format again later in the evening. You know my class has managed to call Mondays, Moaning Mondays and Wednesday is Whining Wednesday and they were doing that today.  I love to hear them Whine.  We all were whining today i have to say.  I had them even counting down, how great it that.  i just love those ladies.  They are awesome and they look great too.  Some sexy ladies I have.

After all of that, I did manage to get the lady to sign up for classes and she wants to get her daughter to sign up too.  Things are differently getting there and no worries.  The big man upstairs is in total control.  I left everything up to him.  I am just his servant.
